Hi! My name is Carin.

This is my soapbox - I love to hear and write about interesting things. Check it out!

Welcome to my 'Soapbox'

I love to share what I learn about interesting things and write about lots of 'stuff' including places to visit, eat, and play. You'll also find things related to my family. I guess you could call this a 'blog' but I prefer to think of it as my online journal. Feel free to look around and if you have any comments or an idea about something you'd like me to write about, give me a shout! I'm always looking for new opportunities. Have an eclectic day!
